There is a story about a Norwegian web page about birds that got
surprisingly many hits on one article. It was an article about a small
bird called "blue tit" in English...

Euphemisms for euphemisms for euphemisms.
Tits! (Pronounced teats according to the late Robert Heinlein who seem
to have his own version of English.) Your photos show naked tits. Damn
Puritans, no wonder they kicked them out of England.
Grin!

Huh???
The shot reveals more than breasts. The upper body is fully revealed
as my post indicated.
It's the day of bizarre posts. Must be a full moon.

Hi,
but the two new
pictures do depict female upper body nudity, so if that offends you
please don't look.
I am deeply offended by the phrase 'depict female upper body nudity',
which should read 'show breasts'. In future please clearly label any
posts which include examples of violence to language so that I don't
have to look.
Here is a story that Alistair Cooke told in a 'Letter from America':
--
Talking of which glittering scenes reminds me of Winston Churchill's
encounter with an American turkey dinner. As a young soldier of 20 he
pulled his mother's apron strings, who pulled other powerful strings
to
get him released from his regiment in order to go off to Cuba and
watch
the turn of century fighting there. On his way he passed through New
York
and was invited to dinner by a society hostess friend of his
mother's.
Poised over the turkey the hostess said: "Which, Mr Churchill, would
you
prefer?"
"Er," he said, "I should like the breast."
"In America," the lady rebuked, "we talk about the white meat and
the dark
meat."
Next morning a corsage arrived from the 20-year old at the hostess's
house.
It bore a little card saying: "Thank you so much for a delightful
evening,
I do hope you will wear this on your white meat."

Perhaps nowadays he would ask her to wear it on her female upper
body.
